Mg + HCl → MgCl2 + H2

How many liters of hydrogen gas are produced at 298 K and 0.940 atm if 4.00 moles of hydrochloric acid react with an excess of magnesium metal?


Sagot :

Answer:

B.) 52.1 liters

sorry for late reply!

52.05 liters of hydrogen gas are produced at 298 K and 0.940 atm if 4.00 moles of hydrochloric acid react with an excess of magnesium metal.

What is Ideal Gas Law ?

The ideal gas law states that the pressure of a gas is directly proportional to the volume and temperature of the gas.

It is expressed as

PV = nRT

where,

P is pressure

V is volume in liters

n is number of moles of gas

R is Ideal gas constant

T is Temperature in kelvin

What is Balanced Chemical equation ?

The balanced chemical equation is the equation in which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation.

Now first we have to write the balanced chemical equation

Mg + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂

Here we can se that 2 mole of hydrochloric acid produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

So 4 moles of hydrochloric gas will give  [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times 4[/tex] moles of hydrogen gas that is 2 moles of hydrogen gas.

Now put the values in above equation, we get

PV = nRT

0.940 atm × V = 2 × 0.0821 L atm / K mol × 298

V = [tex]\frac{2 \times 0.0821\ \text{L atm / K mol} \times 298}{0.940\ \text{atm}}[/tex]

V = 52.05 liter

Thus from the above conclusion  we can say that 52.05 liters of hydrogen gas are produced at 298 K and 0.940 atm if 4.00 moles of hydrochloric acid react with an excess of magnesium metal.
